John Wolford to start for Wake

Wake Forest true freshman John Wolford was named starting quarterback Monday, taking the job after just two months on campus.

Wolford beat out Tyler Cameron and Kevin Sousa, who failed to impress new coach Dave Clawson during the spring and at the start of fall practice. When Wolford takes the field against Louisiana-Monroe on Aug. 28, he will become the first true freshman to start his first game on campus at Wake Forest since Mike McGlamry against NC State on Sept. 7, 1974.
